A: Well THAT was interesting! The last link came up with Chinese characters! lol! Gather by the link you gave this is an ECS mobo. PC3200 is DDR Sdram that operates at 400MHz. It will clock down to 333MHz when installed in your mobo. 333MHz is the fastest speed,(frequency), the ECS Northbridge chip supports. (Your motherboard has a Northbridge/Southbridge chipset. Usually just referred to as the chipset on the motherboard. The Northbridge chips controls the ram memory) 1.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northbridge_(computing) 2.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chipset
